(M2 PressWIRE Via Acquire Media NewsEdge) BUYINS.NET / www.buyins.net, announced today its proprietary Market Maker Friction Factor Report for Friday. Since October 2008 market makers are now required to be on the bid as much as they are on the offer and for like amounts of stock. This Fair Market Making Requirement is designed to prevent market makers from manipulating stock prices. On Friday there were 3987 companies with "abnormal" market making, 2646 companies with positive Friction Factors and 2617 companies with negative Friction Factors. Here is a list of the top companies with the highest net buy volume on Friday and lowest price Friction (bullish). This means that there was more buying than selling in the stocks and their stock prices rose faster with less Friction. Comcast Corp (NASDAQ:CMCSA), Pfizer Inc (NYSE:PFE), Boston Scientific Corp (NYSE:BSX), Sprint Nextel Corp (NYSE:S), CenturyLink Inc (NYSE:CTL), Alcoa Inc (NYSE:AA).

For example, the chart above shows CMCSA with a Net Buy Volume of 1,999,329 shares and a Friction Factor of 22,215 shares. That means that it takes 22,215 more shares of buying than selling to move CMCSA higher by one penny. This means the Market Makers are allowing the stock to move up higher as of Friday (lower friction). And with one of the highest Net Buy Volumes, the combination of low friction and high net buy volume is bullish.
